What floor were you on?? I mean, I've dropped my keys several
times and there's been NO EFFECT at all, but, if you were say on a
higher floor and accidentally dropped them from a fourth story....I
could see this as an issue.... Yes, let us know..... REALLY,. I think it's
more likely that your key fob battery is DEAD.....

A lady I used to work with dropped her Ford Edge key and it cost
her $125 to get a new one. Dropping it on the floor rendered it
unusable and there was no visible damage. I don't think this
happens often, but it does happen.

Bob, $125 is an absolute bargain!! My 2009 Toyota Prius has a
remote transmitter key that allows you to walk up to the car and
open the door without doing anything, no button pushing or anything
on your part, pretty sweet, but, the cost for replacement on that
transmitter is $750.....! My 2010 Subaru has a more traditional key
fob and requires you to push a button on the key to lock or unlock
the door... replacing this would be $350...... SO,. I don't know how
this friend of yours got off so cheap. Could be a regional thing, I live
in a large metropolitan city.. in any case, I really think that this
person should start with the battery.... It's the simplest solution and
costs the least....

My kia rio wont start people say its the altinator but i think its the battery because the car wont start. The lights wont come on nothing. I dont know alot about cars but the altenator looks good an...
